Problem

The original Passage website had a text-heavy design that made it challenging for users to quickly understand its offerings and mission. Potential users, especially international students seeking financial aid, could be overwhelmed by the amount of information, which hindered the platform's ability to communicate its value proposition clearly and effectively.
Key issues:
Lack of visual hierarchy, leading to confusion.
Limited use of visuals, which missed opportunities to connect emotionally with users.
The critical CTA ("Get pre-approved") was not prominent enough, reducing conversion potential.

Solution

The redesign focused on creating a more visual and engaging interface that prioritizes clarity and user-centric storytelling. The new design emphasizes:
Hero Section: A strong visual with a simple, impactful tagline, reinforcing the brand name "Passage" as a metaphor for a seamless journey.
Social Proof: Integrated loan statistics and testimonials from real students, building trust and credibility.
Prominent CTA: A redesigned "Get pre-approved" button that stands out and encourages immediate action.
Reduced Text: Information is presented in digestible formats like cards and visually engaging layouts, making it easier for users to understand the benefits at a glance.
Emotional Connection: Photos of students who benefited from the platform, giving a face to the success stories.
These changes ensure that users can quickly grasp Passage's offerings and are encouraged to take immediate steps toward their goals
